i personally don't really like store-bought reeds. i used to get them from the not-so-local music store (because the actually local one sold squat for bassoon, eww farrington's), and i could only stand marlin lesher. otherwise, they sold emerald (which i was afraid i'd get major splinters), and others that looked/sounded cheap or were crazy expensive for store reeds. anyway, i highly recommend forrestsmusic.com reeds. forrests makes their own bassoon and oboe reeds. my sister plays oboe and says she prefers the store's lesher oboe reeds to forrests, but i absolutely love forrests bassoon reeds! and if you get three or more, then they're only like, $8 each! and they deliver quickly too! i get mine in only a few days!
so forrestsmusic.com. awesome site ;-)
